Who’s ready to celebrate tonight?! 🇺🇸

We can’t wait to welcome you to the field for the Crozet Independence Day Celebration - an evening full of community, fun, and fireworks!

Our parking gates open at 4PM. The downtown Crozet parade kicks off at 5PM, and festivities begin here at 6PM ⬇️
- Two live bands on the field
- Nearly 20 food trucks
- Wine, beer, and cider available for purchase
- A fireworks display around 9:30PM

To help everything run smoothly, please carpool if possible. It helps ease traffic on our grass parking areas and ensures there’s plenty of space for everyone! We truly appreciate your help with this!

‼️Reminders: No coolers, pets, or tents are allowed. Lawn chairs and blankets are encouraged! Be sure to refer to the field map so you know your surroundings!

We have two exits for an easier departure, you will be directed to either depending on traffic flow, please follow the parking team and their directions for a smooth exit!

- The main tasting room exit (to the left) leads to Jarman’s Gap Rd. Right turns will not be permitted from this exit.

- The winery exit (to the right) leads to Route 250 or I-64. Left turns will not be permitted from this exit.

Parking attendants will be on-site to assist throughout the evening!

We’re looking so forward to a fun, festive night with you all! See you soon! 🎇🎆
